After rebirth, I was entangled by the Regent

Jifu

Ji Ziyan has been studying at home recently because of the imperial examination. Although his experience in his previous life allowed him to know the test questions in advance and he had already prepared several works by famous writers, it is an imperial examination after all, and he cannot let others think that he does not deserve the title of top scholar.

But on Nan Mu's side, he had always told the servant to keep an eye on him: "Young Master."

"How's the young lady doing lately?"

The servant didn't react at first. In addition, Ji Sangyu was very favored at home before, so the servant naturally thought that he was talking about Ji Sangyu, so he immediately responded: "Miss has not been in a good mood recently because the prince has been confined, so..."

"Did I ask Ji Sangyu?" Ji Ziyan frowned, "How many times have I told you that the eldest lady of the Ji family is only Xiao Ci."

"I know. Miss Nan... her medicine shop has opened and business is booming. However, because poor people get free consultations and medicine, the medicine shop may not make much money. Besides, Miss hired those people from the north of the city."

"Chengbei?" Ji Ziyan stood up: "Such a big thing, why didn't you tell me? Who are those people in Chengbei? Is Xiaoci okay?"

"Master, don't worry. Miss is fine. I saw that those people in the north of the city were very respectful to Miss. On the opening day, a few people did come to cause trouble, but they were quickly dealt with by Miss."

"Regent..." Ji Ziyan still had some sense of propriety. Except for the Crown Prince, he did not tell anyone else about Nan Mu and Xiao Yi being together: "Is there no one to help deal with it?" What's going on with the Regent?

"No...but the lady is very powerful."

"Send a few more people to wait in the young lady's pharmacy. Also, the young lady runs the pharmacy to make money, and those people have already taken enough."

"Yes, I'll do it right away." After saying that, the servant left. After a while, Ji Ziyan was invited by Su Lan to his yard.

"Mother." Ji Ziyan treated Su Lan with great respect. In the previous life, Su Lan also tried her best to hug him.

"Yan'er, I heard that you have been studying hard recently. In fact, you don't have to work so hard. If you want to enter the government, and your father won't help you, you can ask your grandfather."

"Don't worry, mother. Your son will definitely win first place this time."

"Since my son is so ambitious, then mother will wait and see." Su Lan turned the Buddhist beads in her hand: "Since she doesn't want to come back, why force her."

Ji Ziyan certainly knew what Su Lan meant: "But mother, she is my biological sister. She has been living away from home for many years and has suffered a lot."

"Yu'er has lived with us for so many years. You used to love her very much. She is very sad about your recent attitude towards her."

"Mother, Ji Sangyu is just an outsider. Why must mother treat Xiao Ci like this?"

Su Lan didn't say anything, but just said to herself: "The prince has been under house arrest recently, and Yu'er hasn't seen the prince for a long time. Do you have any solution?"

"Mother..." Ji Ziyan really didn't understand why his mother would do this for Ji Sangyu: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has met Xiao Ci and is very satisfied with Xiao Ci. I hope..."

"Shut up." Su Lan interrupted Ji Ziyan: "The only person the prince wants to marry is Yu'er."

"Mother."

"Since you want to take her back so much, I have no objection. However, after you take her back, she will be the legitimate daughter of my Ji family, and her marriage to the Regent will be her responsibility."

"Mother, you pushed Xiao Ci to the Regent so that Ji Sangyu could marry the Crown Prince. You clearly knew that the Regent was in an awkward situation in the court. Why did you do that?"
